# Event Details - **Event Name**: Buildings in the Landscape in pen & wash - John Harrison - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Mar, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sat, 14 Mar, 2026 at 04:00 pm - **Event Description**: Pen and Wash WorkshopAbout this EventWorkshop DetailsJohn will start the day with a brief overview of his particular style of line and wash, and the importance he places on drawing and sketching. This will be followed by a group project where you will all be working from the same reference photograph (which will be provided), utilising the techniques described by John, who will offer advice, hints and tips throughout the day.Depending on the speed at which you are happiest working, there will be an opportunity to start (or even complete) a second piece, again choosing from a further selection of reference photos supplied by John. At the end of the workshop, there will be a short informal assessment and review session. Participation in this is completely voluntary as John is aware that not everyone is comfortable doing this.This workshop is most suitable for those with some experience of Pen & Wash, even if only for a few hours. However, John is comfortable with complete beginners joining too.All necessary reference materials will be provided. You will need to bring your usual painting equipment:About the ArtistJohn Harrison - Yorkshire born and bred - and proud of it.John produces drawings and then adds colour in the form of watercolour washes, not too dissimilar to a traditional painter. He will often start with a pencil drawing, add watercolour washes, then add ink lines over the top, but usually starts with a line drawing in ink, or more often, a sketch.He is an active Urban Sketcher - meeting up with other artists at a wide variety of locations to ‘show the world, one drawing at a time’ (a direct quote from the Urban Sketchers’ website).The inspiration for much of his work is to be found within Yorkshire’s borders, and running a close second, the English Lake District: townscapes, landscapes (as long as there’s a building of some sort!), walls, hamlets, villages, ports and harbours as his main subjects. He's always looking for a different viewpoint of familiar places – a dynamic angle, with strong light and shade, which helps the drawing come alive.John has a regular monthly feature in 'Dalesman' magazine showcasing his 'Line Drawing With Colour' and has work in galleries across Yorkshire with many originals in private collections both here and in the USA and Canada.John was a participant in 2017's Sky Arts Landscape Artists of the Year competition and undertakes commissions for large corporate clients and private individuals.He has also appeared on the 2022 edition of Watercolour Challenge on Channel 5.Materials ProvidedCalder Art will provide the following materials for the workshop:1 x Table Top Easel1 x MDF Board in various sizes1 x Paint Pot1 x Palette or PlateMasking Tape and other sundry products are also available.Materials to BringA waterproof ink pen, such as the UniPin, in a fine nib size. My preferred is a 0.1, with 0.2, 0.3 used for emphasis and contrast.Pencils –the softer the better: 2B ,3B or 4BWatercolour paints: either tubes or pans, and a range of colours. A limited palette of colours: Cobalt Blue, Ultramarine, Yellow Ochre, Cadmium Yellow, Alazirin Crimson and Paynes Grey are the main ones.Brushes: Watercolour brushes of decent quality, and larger sizes –a size 10, 12 or 14 would be good. I use a range of squirrel mop brushes for their versatility, but any good round brushes will do.Watercolour paper: the heavier the weight the better. I use a minimum of 300g Saunders Waterford in a rough finish, which helps enormously with the brush effects I use in my work.All materials are available online at www.calderartsupplies.co.uk.
